FIRST CLAUSE ADOPTED
OF THE COERCION BILL IN THE
HOUSE OF COMMONS.
Harcourts Amendment Defeated - The
Government will Not Endure Obstruc-
tion-Notice Given of 80 Amend
ments to the Second Clause.

LONDON, May 1.-THE debate on the
coercion bill was resumed this evening.
On Sir William Vernon Harcourt's amend,
ment he said if the government were con-
tent to direct inquiries authorized under
the bill to such offences as murder, arson,
"moonlighting" and mutlation of cattle
the bill might pass the bill would then
deal with actual crimes and would
not be a measure creating Offences.
If there was land trades union in Ire
land wonld the bill suppress it ? If so, on
what ground did the government distin
guish between an Irish trades union and
an English trades unionS
Balfour held that the offence embraced
in the measure had been sufficiently de-
fined and that the amendment if adopted
would simply render the bill futile, leav-
ing out learly all the agrarian Offences
He said comparison of trades union with
Irish conspiracy to pay no rent was obvl-
OuSly absurd. AS to the suggestion that
the bill would be allowed to progress if
the government conceded the amendment,
he would distinctly intimate that the gov
ernment would not yield to obstruction in
! any thing.
Dillon contended that unless the amend
ment was accepted the government would
/ be able to imprlson everybody who might
be politically obnoxious The landlords
who had not received their rents might
swear out an information of conspiracy,
causing all sorts of persons to be brought
up for bogus inquiry. If they refused to
answer the questions such persons might
be imprisoned as long as the government
chose.
Gladstone regretted the government
allied to recognize the Justice of granting
the Irish tenant the same protection
afforded the English workman. AS to
boycotting, the government must explain
what was meant by that term. Was in
timidation included or only boycotting
leading to exclusive dealing When Bal
four said that the government refused to
yield to obstruction the opposition's re-
sponse was the right to refuse to yield to
tyranny.
Sir r. f. Webster, the attorney general,
said that the bill solely aimed at dealing
with criminal conspiracy. 1t was impos-
sble to give an exact definition of boycott
ting which Gladstone demanded. 1t would
surpass the wit of man to define what the
development of boycotting might be, but
} they knew of the offence and there was nc
! danger injustice would be done i'll sur
J pressing it. Vice was at the root of all
boycotting combinations. Once an in
: quiry was begun into any one form of boy
cotting there was no logical halting. The
| inquiry must be pursued until all forms
J of the evil had been investigated.
z The amendment was negatlved PAP to
$50.
The first clause of the bill was adopted
2 III to 70 and notice was given of so amend
. ments to the second clause.

The United States Court Adjourns for
Lack of Funds.
AN UNNATURAL CRIME.
Windsor People Excited Over the Discov.
cry OF IA Boys Body in Pool of Water.

w
WINDSOR, May lS.-Early this morning
a farmer living about half a mile north
of this place found the body of child
apparently about three weeks old in
pool of water short distance from the
railroad track on the Evart's farm. When
this discovery was reported the porter of
the Windsor hotel remembered that few
minutes after the arrival of the S;l5 train
from the south the previous evening,
young woman was noticed on the depot
platform carrying a young child who
cried loud and frequently. About an hour
afterward the young woman went to the
hotel where she paid in advance for her
lodgings and asked to be called in time to
take the $3.50 Il. M. train south. The fact
that she did not have the child with her eS-
capped attention at that time and the clerk
arranged with conductor who was also
intending to take the early train to call
the young woman. Nothing further was
thought about her until the discovery of
the baby'S remains was announced, when
the circumstances of last evening at once
recurred to the hotel employees.
1t was learned d that she had purchased
ticket for New York and u telegram sent
there to intercept her resulted in her ar
rest. 1t has been learned that she worked
in this town through the winter and left
in March, going to Charleston, n H.,
where her child was born about three
weeks ago. She left Charleston last even
ing coming to Windsor as above stated
Insanity is thought to be the cause of the
deed. She gave her name as Nellie Cor
rigan.

The Investigation of Fire Chief
Kahn Results in an
Acquittai.

The result ofthe fire committees in
vcstigation of Charles Kahn, chief of
tho fire department, is as the HERALD
prcdicted-a verdict of not guilty.
There were no facts brought out ut
the investigation, further than have
been detailed in this paper. Chief
Kahn was not to blame for the engines
going to the Cedars, which is all the
point which can be made against the
department. The committee says:
The fire committee met at the re
quest of Chief Kahn, to investigate
his conduct about the late fire in the
Marsalis block. Having the state
ments of the chief and assistant chief,
rs well as of other members of the de-
partment, and statement from Alder.
man Loeb, who was cary at the scene
of the fire. we can see no blame a.
tached to the fire department or to
Chief Kahn; but in justice to all con
ccrncd, we request full invo stiga-
ton of the matter aud invite those
making the charges of inefliciency
against Chief Kahn to appoint time
and place and we will bring all par
ties TO fair trial face 10 lace, as we
feel that in charging the fire depart
ment with inefficiency the blame, ifany,
attaches more or less to our commit
tee.
Chief Kahn stated that the insur-
ance people ought to be compelled to
bring evidence to show any incfficien-
cy.
The underwriters bit off little
more than they could chew in
the first flush of their indig-
nation. If they had let the depart
mcnt alone and made center shot at
the mo" system Of fire alarms, they
would have hit the bulls eye for sure.
While the HERALD would certainly
regret the execution of the under
writer's threat, increasing the rate of
insurance % per cent, there is some
excuse for their making it.
But the city council has it in its
power to stop this dissension. 1t is a
duty it owes the insurance companies
and people to establish complete
system of fire alarms. Everybody
favors it and it would be a piece of
folly, incxcusable, if the city council
did not forthwith comply with the
Underwriters demand for fire alarms.

assemblage 1t may be stated the yiv-
isectionists were voted down, as thsy de-
served, and the meeting broke MP with
the general understanding that for the
present. at least, hanging will do. If any
innovation is to be made (and i. will bss
long time ere the present mode is,dis-
pensed with society will lnsist that the
substitute shall be as free fpom pain
as possible, with the element
of cruelty absolutely eliminated.
The theory of the law, and we may of hu-
mainly, is that the infection of physical
pain on the criminal is in no sense con-
sideration in the infiction of cap
ital punishment. The chief end of
the penalty is to deter others
from committing like crimes, as
well as to remove man whose presence
is menace to his fellow-men Any tend
ency to make the form OF the penalty
more severe, as to physical suffering,
ought to and will be rebuked.

GAS AND ELELTRLCITY.

As electricity slowly crowds out gas as
an illuminant, we wonder that efforts
have not been made to use the latter as q
fuel and power producer When gas is
burned in an ordinary gas flame % pei
cent. is consumed IN producing heat, and
the remaining per cent. only in prOduc-
ing light. We learn this from an excel
lent authority, and also from the same
source that gas is far more efficient than
raw coal as heating agent; and it is
also far cheaper to turn coal into gas and
use gas in gas engine, than to burn the
coal directly under the boiler of steam
engine. Bearing these facts in mind, it
would seem that the day is not far dis
tant when both by rich and poor gas will
be used as the cheapest, most Clearly and
convenient means for heating and cook
ing, and raw coal need not enter our
houses. Also that gas engines must sooner
or later supersede steam engines, and thus
gas be used for driving the machine
that produces electricity. With the sub
stituton of gas for coal, as fuel, will
end the present abominable and wasteful
production Of smoke. There will be no
more cartIng about of coal and ashes,
and no more trouble Of using wood and
paper to kindle the fire. No more coal
scuttles, 70 more sooty chimneys. If it
is as we have stated in the beginning of
this article, it will pay gas companies to
look into the matter. We do not say
that the electric light is an entire success
yet, for We believe that gas can be sup
piled cheaper, given the same amount of
light. But the present lack of improve
ment in electric lighting we believe to be
due almost solely to speculation. The
matter has been taken from the hands OF
men of science and put in the hands of
stock joobers. But we trust that all at
tempts have not been cast off to give
regular and efficient supply at reason
able cost.

Ral. Maxey. Reagan. Irelsnd. Terrel. Scat,g.

Estimating the chances of the three
candidates by the ballots from the outset,
no other opinion can be formed than that
if Reagan gave way Maxey would be
elected and If Maxey gave way Reagan
would be elected, and that there is no
hope for Ireland in any event. Certainly
the two leading candidates can feel under
no obligation to give way for one who
has fingered uniformly so far in the rear.
The Twentieth Legislature was sup
posed to be peculiarly representative of
the people, in arms against the
methods of politicians" but the ballots
show that reform, hay-seed legislature
can be as easily manipulated ct the public
expense as can any other class of men.
Among the supporters OF Governor
Ireland are the names of gen.
tlemen who were sent to Aus
tin on popular movement that
professed to be only for the public good,
for reform measures and economical
methods; yet they deliberately waste
time voting for q man who has no chance
of success, and thus enable him to pre-
vent an election, at a cost of so much
day to the tax payers. These gentlemen
will, no doubt, be able to explain salts
factorily to their constituents; but those
who are not professional or spasmodic
"reformers," and who view with dis
trust the periodical howl that goes up
against "politicians" observe with no
surprise the attitude of certain Hsy-seed-
Peoples Party -Anti-Monopolists at Aus
tin. They are as pliable asany old wheel
horse A few letters from the people at
home to their representatives, at Austin
might prove potent key to the deadlock.
The people evidently want Reagan or
Maxey, and both these candidates have
ample justification for fighting the bat
tie to finish. Reagan can point to the
ballots already taken and to the record
which gave him strength. Maxey is JUS
tilted in accepting Ireland's aid in the
effort to wear Reagan out, for Msxey will
win If Reagan falls by the wayside, and
has stood close to the great commoner as
the choice of the people. But what ex-
cuse has Ireland for obstructing the
popular desire and for delaying legisla-
ton?
THE GAZETTE sees no reason to change
its comment on the first ballot, VIZ: "If
Ireland yields gracefully it will be
Reagan or Maxey; if Ireland is stubborn
it will be Reagan or q dark horse"
ireland is stubborn, and it now rests with
Mr. Reagan to say whether he can held
on to fight the battle to finish. Can he,
as the embodiment of an idea,
which Maxey has not antagonized,
hold his supporters as those of Maxey
and Ireland are held? If he can, it will
be Reagan. If he cannot, he will see it,
and may be expected to be either the
Senator or g potential influence in nam
ing the man who is.
